UAE: TAQA, ADNOC, and Mubadala complete transaction for
stake in Masdar clean energy powerhouse
Source: Masdar
Abu Dhabi National Energy Company (TAQA), Mubadala Investment Company
(Mubadala) and Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC) have announced the successful
completion of the Masdar transaction, following which they will all become shareholders in Abu
Dhabi Future Energy Company (Masdar) – Abu Dhabi’s flagship clean energy company.
This transaction – first announced in December last year by His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin
Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the United Arab Emirates – sees three Abu Dhabi champions
combining their efforts to rapidly grow Masdar on a global scale under an expanded mandate
covering renewable power, green hydrogen and other enabling clean energy technologies.
TAQA is taking the leading role in Masdar’s renewable business with a 43% shareholding, while
Mubadala retains 33% and ADNOC holds 24%. ADNOC is taking the leading role in Masdar’s green
hydrogen business with a 43% stake, Mubadala holding 33%, and TAQA 24%. The partnership sets
out to develop Masdar into a global clean energy powerhouse that consolidates the renewable

 New Masdar outlines ambitious growth plans to bolster position
as a global leader in clean energy and green hydrogen
 Masdar targets at least 100GW renewable energy capacity and
the production of up to 1 million tons of green hydrogen by 2030,
with aspirations to grow its renewable energy portfolio to
+200GW
 TAQA to take leading role with largest stake (43%) in Masdar’s
renewables business and ADNOC to take the leading role (43%) in
green hydrogen business with Mubadala holding 33% in each
 New Masdar to play central role in delivering the UAE’s Net Zero
by 2050 Strategic Initiative and will be a global champion for
clean energy
 Refreshed Masdar brand unveiled for UAE’s new clean energy

energy and green hydrogen efforts of TAQA, Mubadala, and ADNOC under a refreshed single
Masdar brand. TAQA paid USD 1.02 billion [AED 3.7 billion] in cash for its stake.
Mubadala established Masdar in 2006 to extend the UAE’s leadership role in the global energy
sector, while helping drive the nation’s economic diversification and climate action agenda. Today,
Masdar is active in more than 40 countries across six continents and has developed and invested
in worldwide projects with a combined value of over USD 20 billion.
Under the new partnership, Masdar will become a national clean energy champion for the UAE and
has an ambitious target of growing to at least 100GW of renewable energy capacity globally by
2030. The largest share of this capacity will come from wind and solar technologies. Beyond its
initial goals, the company aspires to develop in excess of 200 GW of renewable energy, reinforcing
its position as a world leader in the renewable energy sector.
In addition, Masdar’s new green hydrogen business will rapidly scale up and target an annual green
hydrogen production capacity of up to 1 million tonnes by 2030, equivalent to saving more than six
million tons of CO2 emissions.
Green hydrogen, which is produced using water and renewable energy, is fast emerging as an
important carbon-free fuel for the decarbonisation of hard to abate sectors such as heavy industry.
It is expected to play a critical role in meeting the world’s net zero aspirations, with Masdar and the
UAE set to take a leading role in the hydrogen economy.
The new Masdar will target growth opportunities around the world including in the US, MENA, CIS,
APAC, and key European countries as well as playing a central role in providing the clean energy
needed for the UAE to achieve its own 2050 net zero target. Growth is expected to come from a
combination of new and existing projects, as well as acquisitions.
His Excellency Dr. Sultan Ahmed Al Jaber, Minister of Industry and Advanced Technology,
Managing Director and Group CEO of ADNOC, and Chairman of Masdar said: 'As the founding
CEO of Masdar, I am excited to see Abu Dhabi’s energy leaders coming together to take Masdar to
the next level.
The Masdar clean energy powerhouse will unlock a new chapter of growth, development, and
opportunity for renewable energy and green hydrogen projects, both in the UAE and worldwide. As
the UAE delivers on its Net Zero by 2050 strategic initiative and prepares to host COP28 next year,
by leveraging the skills and experience of its partners, Masdar will build on its rich legacy as a
pioneer in the renewable energy sector, accelerate the delivery of world-scale projects, and help
meet the world’s growing demand for clean energy.
For ADNOC, our participation in Masdar is an important pillar in our strategy to expand clean energy
production, unlock new opportunities for industrial development and drive decarbonization.'
His Excellency Khaldoon Khalifa Al Mubarak, Managing Director and Group Chief Executive Officer
of Mubadala said: 'We established Masdar 16 years ago based on an early conviction that building
capabilities and supporting innovation and scale across the clean energy spectrum would be
transformative for the nation and an investment in future generations.
Today, Masdar is one of the world’s fastest-growing renewable energy companies. This significant
milestone helps unlock synergies in Masdar’s continued growth journey and the UAE’s global
energy leadership.'
Al Mubarak added: 'Global cooperation is vital to achieving the critical scale in clean energy sources,
and we are committed to leveraging our partnerships to enable Masdar to deliver a broader global
impact.'

His Excellency Mohamed Hassan Alsuwaidi, Chairman of TAQA said: 'This transaction marks the
start of Masdar’s journey towards becoming one of the largest clean energy companies in the world,
backed by three of the UAE’s energy and investment pacesetters. Over the next decade, Masdar
will rapidly expand its renewable energy and green hydrogen investments to accelerate
decarbonization.
Last year, TAQA committed to a renewable energy share of 30% of its total power generation
capacity by 2030. Our stake in Masdar is a key part of delivering on this target, while supporting the
UAE’s ambition to cut greenhouse gas emissions and be a driving force in the global energy
transition. Today, we stand as one of the largest integrated utility players in Europe, the Middle East,
and Africa. Tomorrow, we will be known as a pan-regional low carbon power and water champion.'
Alongside the completion of the transaction, a new Board of Directors has been appointed for
Masdar’s renewable business with His Excellency Dr. Sultan Ahmed Al Jaber reappointed his
position as Chairman. Members include:
 H. E. Mohamed Hassan Alsuwaidi, Deputy Chairman
 Jasim Husain Thabet, Board Member
 Farid Al Awlaqi, Board Member
 Khaled Salmeen, Board Member
 Musabbeh AlKaabi, Board Member
 Ahmed Saeed Al Calily, Board Member
 Dr. Bakheet Saeed Al Katheeri, Board Member
Mohamed Jameel Al Ramahi will continue as Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the enlarged Masdar.
As part of the deal, TAQA will offer to contribute its ownership interests in future Abu Dhabi
renewable power projects to Masdar. Masdar City, Abu Dhabi’s flagship sustainable urban
development, will continue to remain under Mubadala’s ownership as the sole shareholder.

Saudi Arabia seeks bids for Jubail 4 & 6 desalination project
TradeArabia News Service
Saudi Water Partnership Company (SWPC) has invited expressions of interest (EoIs) from leading
developers to finance, build, operate and maintain a key seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO)
desalination water project near Jubail Industrial City.
The desalination plant will be located 18 km south of Jubail Industrial City in the kingdom, adjacent
to the existing plant units (Jubail Phase 1, Jubail Phase 2, Jubail 3A & 3B), in the Eastern Province
of the kingdom.
The Jubail 4 & 6 Independent Water Project, which includes the desalination plant and all
associated infrastructure and facilities, will boast a total capacity of 600,000 cu m potable water per
day.
The power supply to the project will be provided from the Saudi Electricity Company’s high voltage
network, it added. SWPC said it will be conducting a competitive tender process to select a private
developer/developer consortium taht will provide financing, procurement, implementation, operation
and maintenance services for the project.
The successful bidder, through a project company to be incorporated, would then develop the plant
and sell the entire capacity and output to SWPC under a 25-year concession pursuant to a Water
Purchase Agreement. The Saudi utility developer has set January 9, 2023 as the deadline for
submitting the bids. Leading professional advisors have been signed up for the key project. KPMG
Professional Services is the lead advisor and financial advisor; Eversheds Sutherland (International)
the legal advisor and WSP the technical advisor.-
Dewa receives 29 EoIs for Phase I Hassyan SWRO project

U.A.E: Dewa receives 29 EoIs for Phase I Hassyan SWRO project
TradeArabia News Service
Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (Dewa) has announced that 29 major developer/developer
consortiums have expressed their interests for the first phase of the 120 million gallons per day
(MIGD) Hassyan Sea Water Reverse Osmosis plant.
This is the first project implemented by Dewa using the IWP model, which will run in phases during
2025 and 2026. A consortium of companies, including Deloitte, WSP and Addleshaw Goddard,
have been signed up to provide consultancy services for the Hassyan desalination project.
"We use clean solar power to desalinate seawater using the latest reverse osmosis (RO)
technologies, which consume less energy. This supports the UAE Water Security Strategy 2036,"
remarked Saeed Mohammed Al Tayer, the MD and CEO of Dewa.
"According to our plans, 100% of desalinated water will be produced by a mix of clean energy that
uses both renewable energy and waste heat. This will allow Dubai to exceed global targets for using
clean energy to desalinate water," said Al Tayer.
Increasing the operational efficiency in decoupling desalination from electricity production will save
around AED13 billion ($3.5 billion) and reduce carbon emissions by 2030," he added.-

U.S. dry natural gas production set monthly records in 2022
source: U.S. Energy Information Administration, Short-Term Energy Outlook
U.S. dry natural gas production has increased during 2022, averaging more than 100 billion cubic
feet per day (Bcf/d) in October and November and exceeding pre-pandemic monthly production
records from 2019. We forecast that U.S. production of dry natural gas will average about 100.0
Bcf/d from December through March , down about 0.5 Bcf/d from November.
This forecast production decrease is primarily due to weather, specifically the possibility of extreme
winter weather events and freeze-offs. Mild weather in key producing regions could prevent those
declines.
The 2022 growth in natural gas production has been driven by increased drilling activity in the
Haynesville region in Louisiana and East Texas and in the Permian region in West Texas and
Southeast New Mexico. Recent pipeline infrastructure expansions in both of these regions facilitated
the increases in production.
We expect dry natural gas production in 2022 to set an annual record in the United States, averaging
98.0 Bcf/d. We forecast production to grow slightly in 2023, averaging between 100 Bcf/d and 101
Bcf/d for the year, about 2% more than in 2022. Production in our forecast for the first half of 2023
is limited by pipeline constraints and declining natural gas prices.
We expect natural gas prices at the U.S. Henry Hub benchmark to average $5.62 per million British
thermal units (MMBtu) in the first half of 2023, compared with our expected December 2022 monthly
average of $6.34/MMBtu.
In the second half of 2023, developers have scheduled more pipeline infrastructure expansion
projects and those projects should contribute to increases in dry natural gas production. If these
projects are delayed, it could result in less U.S. natural gas production than we forecast.

U.S. battery storage capacity will increase significantly by 2025
Developers and power plant owners plan to significantly increase utility-scale battery storage
capacity in the United States over the next three years, reaching 30.0 gigawatts (GW) by the end of
2025, based on our latest Preliminary Monthly Electric Generator Inventory.
Developers and power plant owners report operating and planned capacity additions, including
battery storage, to us through our electric generator surveys. Battery storage capacity in the United
States was negligible prior to 2020, when electricity storage capacity began growing rapidly.
As of October 2022, 7.8 GW of utility-scale battery storage was operating in the United States;
developers and power plant operators expect to be using 1.4 GW more battery capacity by the end
of the year. From 2023 to 2025, they expect to add another 20.8 GW of battery storage capacity.
The remarkable growth in U.S. battery storage capacity is outpacing even the early growth of the
country’s utility-scale solar capacity. U.S. solar capacity began expanding in 2010 and grew from
less than 1.0 GW in 2010 to 13.7 GW in 2015.
In comparison, we expect battery storage to increase from 1.5 GW in 2020 to 30.0 GW in 2025.
Much like solar power, growth in battery storage would change the U.S. electric generating portfolio.
Battery storage adds stability to variable energy sources such as wind and solar. Wind and solar
are both intermittent resources; they can only provide electricity when the wind is blowing or when
sunshine is available. Batteries solve the intermittency problem by storing extra energy produced
by wind or solar generators for use later.
More than 75% of the 20.8 GW of utility-scale battery capacity that owners and operators reported
that they plan to install from 2022 to 2025 is located in Texas (7.9 GW) and California (7.6 GW).

The large amount of existing and planned solar and wind capacity in California and Texas present
a growing need for batter y storage. More utility-scale solar capacity is located in California than in
any other state, 16.8 GW, and developers expect to add another 7.7 GW between 2023 and 2025.
A total of 10.5 GW of utility-scale solar capacity is located in Texas; developers plan to install
another 20.4 GW between 2023 and 2025. In addition, 37.2 GW of wind capacity is located in Texas,
more than in any other state, and developers expect to add an additional 5.3 GW over the next three
years.
As more battery capacity becomes
available to the U.S. grid, battery
storage projects are becoming
increasingly larger in capacity. Before
2020, the largest U.S. battery storage
project was 40 MW. The 250 MW
Gateway Energy Storage System in
California, which began operating in
2020, marked the beginning of large-
scale battery storage installation.
At present, the 409 MW Manatee
Energy Storage in Florida is the largest
operating battery storage project in the
country. Developers have scheduled
more than 23 large-scale battery
projects, ranging from 250 MW to 650
MW, to be deployed by 2025.

Netherlands plans to build two nuclear power plants by 2035
Bart Meijer, Reuters News + NewBase
The Netherlands is planning to build two new nuclear power plants by 2035, which should supply
up to 13% of the country's total electricity production by then, the Dutch government said on Friday.
The power plants need to play an important role in the country's energy transition, as the
Netherlands aims to make its power production carbon neutral by 2040.
The Netherlands derived 12% of its energy from sustainable sources last year. The government
expects to build the new plants close to the only one that's currently operational in the Netherlands,
in Borssele in the southwest of the country.
The government had earlier earmarked 5 billion euros ($5.3 billion) for building new nuclear power
plants, out of a total fund of 35 billion euros dedicated to funding the energy transition in the coming
decade. Building of the two new nuclear plants is expected to start in 2028. ($1 = 0.9480 euros)
Nuclear Power in the Netherlands ( up to date)
 The Netherlands has one nuclear reactor generating a small amount of its electricity.
 Its first commercial nuclear power reactor began operating in 1973.
 A previous decision to phase out nuclear power was reversed, and in 2021 the government
announced plans to build two new nuclear units.
 Its main research reactor produces about half of Europe’s medical radioisotopes.

Oil gains on uncertainty over U.S. pipeline restart, Russian supplies
Reuters + NewBase
Oil prices rose more than 1% on Monday as a key pipeline supplying the United States remained
shut while Russian President Vladimir Putin threatened to cut production in retaliation for a Western
price cap on its exports.
Brent crude futures were up 46 cents, or 0.6%, at $76.56 a barrel by 0500 GMT. U.S. West Texas
Intermediate crude was at $71.59 a barrel, up 57 cents, or 0.8%.
The price gains on Monday for Brent and WTI follow declines in both grades last week to their lowest
since December 2021 amid concerns that a possible global recession will impact oil demand.
"Oil prices are higher as the Keystone pipeline remains shut, China's COVID controls ease and on
concerns that Russia could reduce output," said Edward Moya, a senior market analyst for OANDA.
On Sunday, Canada's TC Energy (TRP.TO) said it had not yet determined the cause of the
Keystone oil pipeline leak last week in the United States. It gave no timeline as to when the pipeline
would resume operation.
Oil price special
coverage
 Brent, WTI rises $1 in early Asian trade
 Easing COVID measures in China also supportive of oil
 Keystone pipeline operator has not determined cause of leak

The 622,000 barrel-per-day Keystone line is a critical artery shipping heavy Canadian crude from
Alberta to refiners in the U.S. Midwest and the Gulf Coast.
China, the world's biggest crude oil importer, continued to loosen its strict zero-COVID policy,
though streets in the capital Beijing remained quiet and many businesses stayed shut over the
weekend, with residents saying a return to normal was a long way off.
Putin said on Friday that Russia, the world's biggest exporter of energy, could cut production and
would refuse to sell oil to any country that imposes a "stupid" price cap on Russian exports agreed
by G7 nations.
While the uncertainty surrounding European Union sanctions on Russian oil and the related price
cap kept volatility high on prices, the sanctions have had a limited impact on global markets so far,
ANZ analysts said in a note.
Saudi Arabia's energy minister also said on Sunday that the impact of the European sanctions and
price cap measures had had no clear results yet, and that its implementation was still unclear.
In the U.S., Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen forecast a substantial reduction in U.S. inflation in
2023, barring an unexpected shock.
China has been moving away from its Covid Zero policy following a wave of protests, offering
prospects for a revival in demand in the world’s largest crude importer. However, a surge in cases
is now spurring concern on consumption over winter, with industry consultant FGE saying in a note
that the sudden lifting of restrictions could pose downside risks for oil demand.
Crude remains on track for its first back-to-back quarterly decline since mid-2019 as the demand
outlook sours and thin liquidity exacerbates price swings into the year-end. Investors are also

weighing the fallout from the $60-a-barrel price cap imposed by the Group of Seven and European
Union on Russian crude to punish Moscow for the Ukraine invasion.
The risk of a production cut from Russia could potentially add “fresh support to the market ahead of
what looks like a challenging 2023,” said Charu Chanana, market strategist at Saxo Capital Markets
Pte in Singapore. Supply worries may keep prices elevated despite the risk of lower demand, she
said.
Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, one the cap’s architects — gave a qualified thumbs-up on the
initiative, telling CBS’s “60 Minutes” that the outcome was “so far, so good”. In the Middest East,
meanwhile, Saudi Arabia’s Energy Minister Prince Abdulaziz bin Salman said the impact remained
uncertain.
Following the imposition of the price limit and related curbs, a backlog of tankers waiting to haul oil
through Turkey’s vital shipping straits built up amid a dispute over insurance cover. That now
appears to be clearing, with a port agent tally on Sunday showing 19 tankers waiting to pass through
the Bosphorus and Dardanelles straits, down from a total of 27 on Saturday.
Key spreads for WTI and Brent continue to hold in contango, indicating ample near-term supply.
Brent’s prompt spread — the difference between the two nearest contracts — was 39 cents a barrel
in contango, compared with $1.58 a barrel in the opposite backwardated structure about a month
ago.

Europe set to import banned Russian diesel without knowing
REUTERS + NewBase
The European Union banned Russian crude imports from Dec. 5 and will ban Russian oil products
from Feb. 5, as it attempts to deprive Russia of oil revenues. Britain ended oil and oil product imports
from Dec. 5
European motorists could find Russian diesel in their tanks even after bans take effect because
regulators lack tools to trace the origin of fuel when it has passed through other countries.
The European Union banned Russian crude imports from Dec. 5 and will ban Russian oil products
from Feb. 5, as it attempts to deprive Russia of oil revenues. Britain ended oil and oil product imports
from Dec. 5.
The challenges in tracking crude once it is refined and diesel once it is blended, mean some Russian
diesel is likely to be delivered to and re-exported from countries such as India and Turkey, market
sources said.
Europe is struggling to replace up to 600,000 barrels per day of Russian supply, according to
Eugene Lindell, refining and products market analyst at consultancy FGE.
However, the reputational risk associated with buying Russian fuel, coupled with insurance
difficulties, means only limited Russian volumes are likely to find their way into Europe, transported
by small players.

HOW WILL DIESEL CUSTOMS AND EXCHANGES POLICE IMPORTS?
Dutch customs, who oversee the major Amsterdam-Rotterdam-Antwerp trade and storage hub, UK
enforcement authorities, and the Intercontinental Exchange will check official certificates of origin
for import ships.
In case of doubt, UK and Dutch customs can request additional documents to help determine origin,
such as contractual agreements, invoices, or bills of lading.
ICE will also look at discharge certificates and proof from refiners that stock is locally refined.
Participants using the U.S.-based CME group's exchanges must have their own legal advice and
consult delivery terminals to ensure sanctions compliance.
WHEN DOES A CHANGE OF ORIGIN OCCUR?
To accept any diesel as of non-Russian origin, Britain, the European Union and the ICE require it
to be substantially processed outside Russia.
"Processing is regarded as substantial only if it results in the manufacture of a new product or
represents an important stage in manufacture, and it takes places in an undertaking equipped for
that purpose," the UK Government website says.
Blending Russian diesel elsewhere with a non-Russian equivalent would not change its origin, while
refining Russian Urals crude into diesel elsewhere would.
HOW EFFECTIVE ARE THE CHECKS?
Britain, the EU and ICE consider diesel to be Russian if it is shipped and reloaded elsewhere.
Britain says any processing to change the product must be done for commercial purposes, such as
making a finished product to meet new UK specifications, not to avoid the sanctions regime.

But is it virtually impossible to trace the origin of blended or refined diesel and difficult to track ship-
to-ship (STS) transfers, meaning these aspects of the sanctions depend heavily on "good will", two
industry sources familiar with import and tracking processes said.
The volumes of STS operations between Russian-affiliated tankers have "dramatically increased"
since February, maritime analytics company Windward said.
"If you were to take Russian diesel out to a more flexible port, you could blend it and issue it with a
different bill of lading with a different origin," one of the sources, involved in the storage and transport
of petroleum products, said. The sources declined to be named because they were not authorised
to speak to the media.
HOW WILL THIS AFFECT DIESEL FLOWS?
Russian diesel is likely to be delivered to and re-exported from countries such as India and Turkey,
market sources said.
Russia could use its fleet to move diesel into Turkey where it can be transferred onto medium-range
tankers, two industry sources said.
"I would have thought that Turkey is re-exporting the barrels or perhaps substituting in-country and
exporting more of their domestic output," lead analyst at Kpler Kevin Wright said.

Britain, the EU and ICE consider diesel refined from Urals outside Russia to be a non-Russian
product, which is likely to result in a further shift in trade flows.
Europe has already started to replace Russian diesel imports with refined product from the Middle
East, but analysts also expect India to refine more Urals and increase diesel exports to Europe.

WHO COULD TRANSPORT RUSSIAN CARGOES?
The EU price cap, which came into effect on Dec. 5, prohibits shipping, insurance and re-insurance
companies from handling cargoes of Russian crude, unless it is sold for less than the $60 price set
by the Group of Seven nations and its allies.
Many of the larger oil companies, including BP and Shell have self-imposed sanctions on Russian
oil and oil products.
And Russia's determination to stop selling oil to countries or companies abiding by the price cap,
coupled with insurance difficulties, means "mainstream tanker owners will be unable to lift Russian
crude," French shipbroking firm BRS said.
But smaller trading companies are already using shadow fleet tankers, several industry sources
said, adding these have arranged insurance with providers in India.
BRS says 111 elderly tankers have been sold to private shipping companies since February
probably to transport Russian oil.
European buyers are also increasingly receiving Russian diesel under the Delivered Ex-ship
Incoterms rule, which leaves the responsibility for insurance in the hands of the supplier, an industry
source said.
HOW WILL THE SHIFT IN TRADE FLOWS AFFECT DIESEL PRICES?
Dutch cooperative Rabobank expects this "flux of a global rerouting" to result in higher logistical
costs, tighter tanker supply, and ultimately higher prices of imported energy products.
"There is a 35-45 million barrel global deficit in middle distillates," Rabobank said. "This structural
problem is going to last years."
